So I have run my 6 gauge wire (60amp breaker at batteries) up to the bow to connect my Pos./Neg from batteries to the Pos/Neg from my Ghost. What is the best buss type connector for the wires in my bow compartment (I am hardwiring them together). I won't run any other wiring on it...only wires from my TM.
If you have a specific name and type would be helpful.
You can use your existing receptacle if you like. Simply drill a small hole in your bow panel to run your 10 gauge from the troller to the back of your panel, and connect to the female receptacle that is already there. Use a clam shell or grommet to cover the small hole. John Jones used to suggest this method instead of using a terminal block.

I mounted these to the aluminum frame under the deck at the bow of my boat when I had it apart. I never liked the idea of a plug for my troller anyway. Leads from the the motor and batteries bolted to the terminal block. I also disconnect my batteries from the troller with the breaker for storage.
It also helped with differing gauges of wire. I have 4 GA from the batteries to the motor and the motor has 10 GA leads.
Thanks guys. All is hooked up and all systems are go!
